I agree. FSU should be in the playoffs because they are an undefeated conference champion

Texas should also get in over Bama and UGA because they won their conference and beat Bama head to head.

My question is why would the committee bend over backwards to put Bama in and screw over big time programs in Texas and Florida St who have more objective arguments to be in the playoffs?

Florida State an undefeated power conference champion with a competitive OOC schedule.

Texas a one-loss power conference champion with an OOC road win over another power conference champion.

I’m as SEC as anybody. But this season, the conference only went 7-9 in OOC Power 5 games.

Anyone picking Bama in it is mentally retarded. Got Bill Cosby'ed at home and should have lost to Auburn. They deserved to be left out.

Not sure SEC is best this year. Our signature win was against that Louisville team in a rivalry game right before their championship. That team that could not beat the 3rd string QB of FSU that had trouble passing down field.
Only conference with a real signature wins were Big 12 and ACC with wins over Alabama and LSU . SEC is out this year.

The committee is made up of humans, if the committee was just a computer system then this argument would make sense, but it’s not. The committee has said their job is to put the best 4 teams in the playoff, no one in this country believes that FSU without Jordan Travis is one of the best 4 teams in the country.

I don’t like Alabama, so I wouldn’t be sad if they were left out, but I also want the playoff to be enjoyable and I think the product would be better with FSU left out.

Why Texas over UGA? Because Texas beat Bama? What about Texas losing to a bad OU team?


Because “head to head” ... does this really need to be explained???
